connectors can make 4.
I probably should have been more clearer. If all I get on the flop is an ace then Ill take a stab at it, but if I get any aggression Ill drop my hand easy as.
Even though there is only one straight I can make with the Ace-low (the wheel) Ive gotten it quite a bit more than you would probably expect to get it.
